Deborah

Day 64

I stopped at Stevens Village, first nation village, population is only 20 - 30, for re-supply of food, and then visited a kind of a meeting place. There was no grocery store, but Deborah George and her daughter Sarah Smoke, who I met there and lived in that land from generation to generation, shared rice, spaghetti and noodle. Moreover, Deborah asked me whether I was hungry or not, and backed home to make spaghetti and coffee for me. She told me that she was educated to be kind to a traveler from her mother, and for generations. It was just two or three hours visit, but their warmth gave me a energy for next one paddle.
